On the strength of this review, I joined the Forum, Anteater! Having grown up in the 80's, I remember Level 42 as a slicker than your ordinary pop act. But I didn't plunk down any cash for their music until the compilation Level Best came out in '90. Needless to say, I wore out my cassette copy but never went back and discovered some of their more obscure tracks. I would say their music is kind of a Prog Pop with somewhat dated but excellent musicianship.
